Primal Inheritance: Freedom [COMPLETED]

Chapter 12: Bedroom

Samantha

I stopped in the hallway. There was lots of commotion downstairs. It was dark, then random spots of light. All I heard was glass breaking and Allen's wolfish roar.
"Hmm." I thought. "This is the first time he's controlled the wolf form. I hope he's okay."

I turned, and instead of going downstairs, I went to my room. It looked just like it did when I left at the age of 19. Basically, it looked like a 7 year old lived in it. My cute princess bed, all white with poles on each side that almost reach the ceiling. The pink curtains draped around it that I kept knocking down when I was younger.

Everything in this room made my heart ache. I just a beautiful white vanity mirror just like my mother's, and the dresser was filled with toys, love letters and pictures of boys I used to like. I didn't use it for clothes because we conjured up whatever we wanted. I opened the dresser and picked up some of the pictures. I remembered all of these kids from elementary school.

I didn't use magic for love. I learned from Donna's mistakes. She did it constantly when we were younger, and something bad always happened to boys she fell in love with. After a while, boys stopped talking to her. If she hexed one of them, their friends would literally beat them to save them from Donna.
"That girl is bad luck, get away from her!" They screamed. That's how I manifested my powers in the first place. I had to protect my entire school from Donna.

But Donna was a grade higher than me, which made things difficult. At one point, I got in trouble for having too many absences. I had to tell my parents that I was missing school to stop Donna from killing her classmates. I kept a little charm bracelet that showed me what Donna was doing at all times.

I picked it up off my bed. It had frog, dog, cat, and mouse charms, with a big circular mirror in the center. Before I charmed it, the mirror would change colors depending on my mood. After I charmed it, it showed what Donna was doing from a third person perspective, like a camera above her head.

Enough of this. There was no reason to keep clinging to the past. But still, for some reason, I pocketed the bracelet. There was another loud scream from Allen, a big crashing sound, and the whole house shook.

I hadn't seen or heard any sign of Donna. Maybe she decided to seek out the necklace instead of destroying everything. That didn't matter though. If I didn't get rid of this place, it would hunt me for the rest of my life. I summoned all the remaining energy in me. It had started to replenish itself, so I had more power than I did when Donna through me on the glass table downstairs.

I called on all my energy, and willed it to take form. My body glowed red, the color you see if you cover a flashlight with your hand. I pressed my hand to the wall. Tears started to fall down my face, and I spoke one word.
"Burn."

The door slowly closed after Samantha walked out. I breathed deeply and turned to the mirror.
In the cracks, I could see everyone. I saw that boy, Allen, fighting the malevolence downstairs.
I saw Donna, in her old room, hugging her little girl, crying, and giving her instructions. I saw my baby girl, Sam, in her room, gazing at old memories. There was no need for me to continue. This is my future. Everything right here.

One by one, more cracks appeared in the mirror till it completely shattered. I closed my eyes, and let everything in the room dissolve.

Allen

I was getting sick of this curse. I had so much brain damage I was sure there were literal chandeliers floating around my head. When I looked up, I saw that there were only four chandeliers left. Meanwhile, I had just about destroyed everything in this beautiful living room, including the couch. The curse just stopped speaking a few minutes ago, and weird whistling and crackling sounds were the only thing I had to notify me of when it was going to attack.
